Not only vc-log-outgoing, but also another useful command to show
the log to be able to mark commits in it for preparing a patch,
is `C-x v M L' (vc-log-mergebase) that shows the log of all changes
in the branch.  So I'd rather turn `C-x v l' into a prefix key.

With `C-x v l' as a prefix key it could be `C-x v l s'.
